Well, it’s just a little more challenging when your country is also half of a fucking continent. What works for one small geopolitical area cannot necessarily be applied to the rest of the continent.
Especially when the country is essentially made up of 50 smaller countries that all want different things and have different demographics and climates and environments.
And yes, Americans typically take the more convenient option and the whole focus of their fucking culture in recent history. American culture has essentially become if you can afford it you get more convenience. Just a different culture than what is in Europe and the rest of the world.
Really? China seems to be doing it.
They have one government setting the policy instead of 2 parties in 50 smaller local governments fighting with each other.
So yeah, it’s a little easier for top-down decisions on policy.
US looks like a dictatorship to me.
The US is a corporate controlled oligarchy with a n orange wannabe dictator.
Trump thinks hes one of the corporate elites I think.
So then this is where the states need to flex their rights that on party is always so big on.
Well, I agree with you that just not gonna happen because the two parties are fighting each other at every level of the government, including local state governments.
Politicians from both parties are paid by their corporate interest to keep everything the same and continue selling and high energy prices.
